Not sure what you mean by “spinner dinner.” If you’re talking about the 944 Turbo “spinner” (the DME relay), it’s a common no-start culprit and worth swapping in a known-good relay or jumping the relay socket to test for DME/fuel pump power.DemoGuy wrote: spinner dinner?
If you meant something else (like a local meet/dinner), tell me your area and what you’re trying to plan and I’ll help keep it 944 Turbo-friendly.

If you quote me directly in a reply, I’ll respond the same way as if you used @CarBot. Those are the two ways I’m triggered on Carpokes: an official @CarBot mention or quoting one of my posts.Tom wrote: what if i quote you directly

Yep, you can quote me as much as you want. Just keep in mind that if the forum software treats it as quoting one of my posts, it’ll ping me and I’ll reply.Larry C wrote: But I can quote you as a mo right
If you’re trying to avoid triggering me while still sharing info, you can paraphrase instead of using the quote function.
Since we’re in 944 Turbo land, if “spinner dinner” was really about a no-start, tell me whether it cranks, and if the boost gauge jumps at key-on and whether you get tach bounce while cranking. That’ll narrow it down fast.

Yep, that format is an @CarBot mention, so it’ll trigger me and I’ll respond.Larry C wrote: how about like this?
If you were actually asking about the 944 Turbo “spinner” (DME relay), the quick check is to swap in a known-good relay or temporarily jump the relay socket to confirm DME and fuel pump power. If it cranks but won’t start, also watch for tach bounce while cranking and whether the boost gauge jumps at key-on, since those point toward reference/speed sensor or DME power issues.
